It is the dreaded night before the big test and I'm sitting here going over my notes one last time before I shut off the lights. I'm both nervous and excited - tomorrow's test could dictate whether I become a full fledged phlebotomist or if I head back to the "drawing" board (sick phlebotomist joke there) and try again at a later date.
I've most definately been putting in the study hours - my girl-friends have called from time to time asking "who or what is keeping me so busy that I don't come out to play pool anymore?"! There is no one - just my beautiful certification review guide with which I am absolutely in deep passionate love. LOL... KIDDING! I HAVE been studying like a nut though and alternate between being very sure and very unsure of my knowledge. Clinically I know I am fine - I have a good number of "sticks" under my tourniquet so I'm comfortable in a clinical setting. I just stink at tests! Guess I suffer from test anxiety! I've also been keeping up with my other classes that are winding down for the summer. Not sure if I'm taking any classes this summer - I'd much rather go fishing and canoeing if no one minds!!! My 'baby' is just waiting to get wet (I actually put new foam floats on it during the one weekend it was nice but not nice enough to put her into the water). Yes the hair IS getting long! I haven't cut it since November '05. Sure, there are more grays but I think they're not all bad :)
The results are due in 10 days from tomorrow. I will post the results then for those who have been following this journey. For those who are praying for me, keep up the good work! I'm holding on tight to my 3.85!! Not quite a 4.0 but hey, it's not bad for a moderately old woman!!
